Douluo Dalu: Starting With Tom Cat
Chapter 316: Ambition to Found a Nation, Shen An Arrives at the Sword Sect
CHAPTER 316: CHAPTER 316: AMBITION TO FOUND A NATION, SHEN AN ARRIVES AT THE SWORD SECT
Under the operation of the inside agent, Yu Luomian, a purge occurred within the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon family.
At the same time, Yu Luomian clearly stated that he would insist on the leadership of Spirit Hall, with an expression of being willing to die for his lord.
This second-in-command was just short of writing "loyalty" on his face.
The Spirit Kite Douluo expressed great satisfaction. This was definitely a great merit.
Thus, Shen An had her first take all the soul masters and leave, while he himself temporarily stayed at the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon family.
Oh, it should now be called the Blue Lightning Branch Hall of Spirit Hall.
At this moment, Yu Luomian was sitting on the throne that had originally belonged to his big brother. His expression revealed an obsession. Now, in this family, he was the absolute one in charge.
However, soon, a figure flashed and appeared before him.
A white robe and a jade crown, his style outstanding.
"Just a chair. Is it really so comfortable to sit on?"
The expression on Yu Luomian’s face immediately converged. He hurriedly got up from the throne, his old face wreathed in smiles.
"My lord, please forgive me. This was just a long-cherished wish of this humble one. In fact, sitting on it is just so-so."
Shen An pouted. Just so-so? Just now, this Yu Luomian was almost moaning with enjoyment.
"My lord, is there anything you need me to do for you?"
Yu Luomian said respectfully. His posture was very low, so low that even Shen An was amazed.
From just now, this second-in-command was absolutely extremely obsessed with power. He could be so happy just by sitting in a chair.
But Yu Yuanzhen was gone. Wasn’t there still Spirit Hall pressing down on his head?
Shen An just shook his head and didn’t think more. He could only say that what everyone wanted was different.
"I have come to give you a great creation," Shen An said with a smile.
The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon family had been subdued by him. Naturally, he couldn’t just let them submit to Bibi Dong for nothing. Wouldn’t that be aiding the enemy?
Yu Luomian looked at Shen An with confusion. A great creation? What great creation?
He instinctively felt that something was wrong. Just as he was about to refuse, he saw Shen An naturally place his hand on his shoulder. A stream of sword qi naturally flowed in his body.
The power that was unique to the number one beast martial soul under heaven was madly retreating.
"Don’t be in a hurry. You listen to me explain in detail, and then think carefully," Shen An said with a smile.
Yu Luomian, feeling the power in his body, said with a solemn expression, "My lord jests. To serve my lord is Yu’s honor. No matter what, this humble one will do it."
"Haha, I was saying that Clan Master Yu is a smart person."
The smile on Shen An’s face was constant. Yu Luomian was also laughing along. It was just that this smile was somewhat bitter.
One shichen (two hours) later, Shen An also left the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon family, leaving Yu Luomian alone on the spot, his face uncertain.
---
Shen An returned to Spirit City on his sword and happened to run into Ghost Douluo and his group.
He looked at the gloomy faces of Ghost Douluo and his group and knew that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect was safe.
Ghost Douluo, seeing Shen An’s leisurely expression, could guess that the other party had definitely completed his mission perfectly. This couldn’t help but make Ghost Douluo even more frustrated.
Under the contrast of an outstanding employee, didn’t it make them seem very useless?
"You~"
Ghost Douluo was just about to speak when he saw a Soul Douluo hurriedly fly over.
"Your Excellencies, Her Majesty the Pope requests your presence."
Now, Ghost Douluo could only swallow the words he wanted to ask. Now he could only brace himself and go.
In the Pope’s Hall, Bibi Dong listened to the Spirit Kite Douluo’s report, a look of joy on her face.
"Good, good, good! Yan Chixia is worthy of being the person this Emperor values."
The group from Ghost Douluo, who had just entered, hearing Bibi Dong’s laughter, couldn’t help but tremble all over.
Bibi Dong was clearly in high spirits. How could he open his mouth?
Bibi Dong’s gaze also fell on the seven Titled Douluos, led by Ghost Douluo.
At this time, she discovered that the faces of these seven Titled Douluos were all slightly ugly.
A bad feeling instantly arose in Bibi Dong’s heart. But with seven Titled Douluos plus ten thousand soul masters, no matter how powerful the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect was, it was impossible for them to turn the sky upside down, right?
She asked probingly, "How is your progress?"
These seven Titled Douluos all lowered their heads and did not speak. This undoubtedly fueled the strangeness in Bibi Dong’s heart.
"Speak quickly!"
The six Titled Douluos, including Yue Guan, all retreated in unison, leaving only Gui Mei alone to face Bibi Dong directly.
Gui Mei: ...
Damn! He, as an agility-attack-type Titled Douluo, had at this moment actually become the slowest one.
Gui Mei could only brace himself and say, "Your Majesty the Pope, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is willing to surrender to Spirit Hall."
Bibi Dong’s face softened slightly. She looked at Gui Mei with displeasure. Isn’t this news quite good?
"It’s just that this is the result of a discussion between the other party and the Spirit Elder Hall. When we arrived, the Second Priest was chatting and laughing with Chen Xin."
Bibi Dong: ???
At this moment, she almost couldn’t control the soul power in her body and coughed heavily. This was the injury that Qian Daoliu had left on her before, and it had not yet healed.
Under the great ups and downs of her mood, it was even more so triggered.
For the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to surrender to her and to surrender to the Spirit Elder Hall were completely two different concepts. Who didn’t know that she was now like fire and water with the Spirit Elder Hall?
"You!"
Bibi Dong’s face was ugly. She instinctively wanted to reprimand him, and even to make a move on him, but in the end, she endured it.
One, now was precisely the time when people were needed. If she were to punish him casually, I’m afraid it would shake people’s hearts.
Two, the Spirit Elder Hall and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect had discussed in secret. This was something no one knew. The fault was indeed not on these people.
Bibi Dong slowly closed her eyes and let out a breath of frustration.
She sat on the Pope’s seat with some fatigue.
’Just a mere Seven Treasure surrendering. Now the basic foundation of Spirit Hall is still with me. Qian Daoliu has already made a move on me once. There is absolutely no possibility of a second time.’
Bibi Dong opened her eyes again, her tone indifferent as she said, "Alright, you are not to blame for this time. You can withdraw first. Yan Chixia and Ling Yuan, stay behind."
The seven from Gui Mei’s side were also relieved. This extremely skilled Pope had actually not pursued their responsibility.
"Yes, Your Majesty the Pope. This subordinate will surely make up for his faults in the future."
After a few perfunctory words, the seven from Gui Mei’s side left.
At this time, the Spirit Kite Douluo was also secretly glad. Fortunately, she had been assigned to Shen An. The trip to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon family was purely a matter of lying flat.
Although Bibi Dong had said she wouldn’t hold it against them, who knows, maybe in her heart she already had a small notebook where she had written down the faults of those seven people.
Thinking of this, the Spirit Kite Douluo couldn’t help but look at the Yan Chixia-like Shen An.
’This Tenth Elder is indeed outstanding. His age is not great, and his cultivation is excellent. But I am only a few decades older than him. If we could become partners, it would not be bad.’
At this time, in the great Pope’s Hall, only Bibi Dong, Shen An, and Ling Yuan were left.
This Pope looked at Shen An, and only then did a faint smile appear. "Yan Chixia, you have done very well. You are worthy of being this Emperor’s confidant."
"In that case, there is another mission for you. In the next three months, go and visit the Lower Three Sects~ er, the Lower Three Sects for this Emperor."
Bibi thought of the Black Tiger Sect, whose entire sect had been exterminated, and so she corrected herself.
Shen An looked over with a slightly puzzled look. To go to the Lower Three Sects, what for?
"Now that the Seven Treasure and the Blue Lightning are no longer stumbling blocks, this Emperor wishes to gather the soul master power on the continent within three months."
"And although the Lower Three Sects have long since submitted to Spirit Hall, it is still better to show our strength and press them a little."
"Yan Chixia, incidentally, you can also tell them that three months later, the Upper Three Sects and the Lower Four Sects will be re-ranked."
"In this way, all seven great sects will be our power. At that time, I will have the power of this group of soul masters in the hands of Spirit Hall."
"And this will also be the beginning of my establishment of a brand new empire, to ascend the throne as emperor!"
"The great thousand-year enterprise of the Spirit Empire will begin with me!"
Bibi Dong’s tone suddenly rose. She stood up, her scepter tapping the ground. A brilliant light shone in her pupils. It was an unobstructed ambition.
At this moment, even the Spirit Kite Douluo couldn’t help but be subdued by Bibi Dong’s current spirit.
’She wants to found a nation and become emperor. No, I have to find a way to intercept her,’ Shen An thought to himself.
Then he saw Bibi Dong staring at him, waiting for praise.
"Her Majesty the Pope will surely unify the continent, for a thousand autumns and ten thousand generations, the one and only," the corner of Shen An’s mouth twitched as he said in agreement.
Only then did Bibi Dong nod with satisfaction.
"Don’t worry. At that time, when I am the human world’s emperor, you two will be the greatest meritorious ministers and will share the glory with me," Bibi Dong unsparingly drew a big pancake.
---
That night,
In the Spirit Elder Hall, besides the Golden Crocodile Douluo who was temporarily staying at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, the six great Tributes were engaged in a heated discussion.
They had also not expected that Bibi Dong would actually want to be an emperor. How could this be? If anyone was to be an emperor, it had to be Qian Renxue.
"Seniors, it just so happens that Bibi Dong has asked me to go on a trip to the Lower Three Sects. This is an excellent opportunity."
"I am confident that I can make the power of these three sects all be used by Xue’er."
"At that time, when the seven great sects are re-selected, it will be when Spirit Hall’s prestige is at its highest. At that time, we will have the seven great sects jointly submit a petition, asking Xue’er to ascend the throne. This will catch Bibi Dong off guard."
Shen An said with a smile. Bibi Dong was too concerned with stability. The time when the seven great sects were re-selected would be the highest point of Spirit Hall’s prestige. But she just had to first gather the soul master power from the common people.
In that case, then he would seize her foundation and disrupt Bibi Dong’s basic plan.
Qian Daoliu nodded slightly. What Shen An said was indeed excellent. With Spirit Hall taking the lead to re-select the seven great sects, and then with the seven great sects jointly submitting a petition, asking Qian Renxue to ascend the throne...
In this way, Bibi Dong could only stare blankly. If she had any thought of obstructing it, then she would suffer the backlash of the entire Spirit Hall.
At the moment of transforming the hall into a nation, what everyone cared about was just their own future status. No one would care if the boss on top had changed.
Besides, with the seven great sects all standing up together, wasn’t this enough to explain everything?
"The Lower Three Sects have submitted to Bibi Dong for a long time. Can they be so easily persuaded by you?" the Guangling Douluo asked with confusion.
Shen An smiled faintly. "All the world comes and goes for profit."
"Since Bibi Dong has asked me to go and show my fist to the Lower Three Sects, it means that these three great sects are not absolutely loyal."
"As long as we have enough strength, and then draw a big pancake~ oh no, is to make a heavy promise, they will naturally surrender to the stronger side."
All the Tributes nodded. In terms of strength, the fist of their Spirit Elder Hall was the biggest.
Qian Daoliu also threw over a token. "Although your combat power is strong, with just you alone, they will not easily submit. At that time, show them this token, and they will naturally understand who is behind you."
Shen An did not politely refuse and accepted it. Although he was confident in his own unparalleled combat power, in terms of deterrence, it was surely no match for the Qian Daoliu who had lived for over a hundred years.
However, when the seven great sects were re-selected, there would be another wave of a huge amount of fame points waiting for him. He also hadn’t had a lottery draw for a long time.
---
The next day, Shen An set off on the road to the Lower Three Sects with his cat and mouse.
The Lower Three Sects were now the Elephant Armored Sect, the Wind Sword Sect, and the Fire Leopard Sect. Their sect masters were all experts at the Soul Douluo level, and were even stronger than an ordinary Titled Douluo in certain domains.
For example, the Sect Master Huyan of the Elephant Armored Sect, in terms of defense alone, was superior to an ordinary Titled Douluo.
Of course, if they really fought, even Dugu Bo could take his life.
And Shen An decided to go to the Star Luo Empire first. After all, it was the location of two great sects. It was more convenient to visit them together.
Seven days later, Shen An had arrived at the Wind Sword Sect. He was quite interested in this sect that used a sword.
This sect was extremely skilled in sword formations. Although in terms of sword path attainments, even its sect master was by no means a match for Shen An, Shen An remembered that this sect should be able to give him some new inspiration.
At this time in the Wind Sword Sect, the Sect Master, Feng Ge, had long been waiting in the main hall of the sect. The Wind Sword martial soul was suspended by his side, as if very much looking forward to it.
The day before, he had received a post from Spirit Hall, learning that the Tenth Elder, Yan Chixia, who had moved the world with his sword, was coming.
As the sect master, he understood Spirit Hall’s intentions. It was naturally the re-selection of the seven great sects that had been promised long ago. Of course, there might be other matters.
To this, he was naturally happy to see it happen. After all, who wouldn’t want their own sect to become strong?
But as a sword cultivator, he also wanted to see how strong the sword that had drawn with Sword Dao Chen Xin really was.
Ahem, of course, if they were to fight, everyone would only use their sword path attainments and not their soul power. Otherwise, he was afraid he would die too quickly.
Feng Ge, sensing an unconcealed aura high in the sky, did not hesitate and directly flashed out, coming to an open space in the sect.
Shen An also sensed Feng Ge’s aura. After all, his aura was the strongest in the entire sect.
"I am the Sect Master of the Wind Sword Sect, Feng Ge. Greetings, Your Excellency the Yan Douluo."
Feng Ge said loudly. Shen An then immediately landed. Tom and Jerry, wearing their dog-head suits, followed closely behind.
Feng Ge looked at the Shen An with two dogs, the corner of his mouth twitching slightly. This newly famous Tenth Elder of Spirit Hall really had a lot of leisure and elegance, to even bring pets when he went out.
"Sect Master Feng is too polite. I have come this time representing the will of Spirit Hall. One is for the re-selection of the seven great sects three months later. Two is for the matter of Spirit Hall founding a nation. At that time, we will still need the cooperation of the Wind Sword Sect."
Shen An got straight to the point. Feng Ge’s face suddenly changed. Found a nation?
This was no joke. The moment Spirit Hall founded a nation, it would undoubtedly bring great pressure to Heaven Dou and Star Luo.
Under the trend of a strong crisis, it would not be surprising what kind of move these two great empires would make.
And although Spirit Hall was strong, the million-strong armies of the two great empires were no joke.
At that time, it would surely be the start of a bloody storm.
But for Feng Ge, on normal days, it was fine to just cheer for Spirit Hall. If something really happened, he would still run as far as he could.
The lives of his disciples were still very precious.
"What, is Sect Master Feng unwilling?"
Shen An looked over with a smile. The sword intent on his body suddenly rose. Feng Ge was like a startled cat, and in an instant, he shot out several hundred meters away.
